[V8] Looking for a hood

[Coleman, David]

That might take a bit of luck Ed.  Paint on a used hood will be tough to
find that's a perfect match, and repainting will allow you to blend the
hood with the tops of the fenders.  If you have the incination, you can
hit your hood with a DA sander and primer it yourself, which will same
some $$$ at the body shop.  MAACO scares me to death, especially when
you ask them to do anything that requires masking, let alone blending...
